Mezuzah

A Chinese businessman operating out of south China suffers a string of robberies.

He calls up his associate in Israel and asks him if he ever had a problem with robberies.

"Not really," replies the Israeli. "We have this thing we put on the doorpost - called a mezuzah - and it protects our homes from harm."

"Send me one," begs the Chinese guy, "I'm desperate for a solution."

A few weeks later, the Israeli gets his mezuzah back in the mail. He calls up his Chinese friend. "Nu," he asks him. "The mezuzah didn't work? You were>robbed again?"

"No, no," the Chinese guy assures him, "no robberies,"

"So why did you send it back?"

The Chinese guy sighs. "I dunno," he says. "Ever since I hung it up, the doorbell doesn't stop ringing. Each time a different dude standing there, saying the same thing: 'Hachnassas Kallah!'"
